Any recent stays here? I made a reservation a month ago and it now has this notation -

I enjoyed my suite on my last stay a couple years ago, but base rooms are tiny, breakfast is mediocre, the gym is tiny if that's a need...I love Ws but this one isn't/wasn't the best expression of the brand. Hope some of these renovations help.

On my last stay a few years ago, I had a Marvelous Room for 1 night then upgraded to Suite for the final 4 nights. I have another 5 night stay booked early Dec. on points for a regular room. I'm hoping they still do upgrades for lowly Plats.

Stayed there last week. Nice upgrade for a lowly Gold to a Wow Suite. Scaffolding was up on the side of the building that directly faces to the Opera Garnier and that houses the Apple store. The side we were in, with the hotel entrance and the restaurant and that offers a more oblique view of the Opera, didn't have any scaffolding. For how long I don't know. Great staff and we really enjoyed our stay. BTW the Intercontinental that sits the other side of the Opera house is absolutely plastered with scaffolding so there is a lot going on in the area.

Elite Benefits
Has anyone had any recent experience with Elite Benefits here? The hotel looks nice, but curious if they have a lounge or breakfast for a titanium.
Thanks!
Thanks!

Unless one is staying on OPM and/or has a per diem, a breakfast for every day of the stay (for up to 2 people) is generally seen as the superior benefit relative to a one time point bonus worth about $6
